Predictions

This best of three series should go in favor of Cloud9, simply because they are better than Luminosity, however they looked quite shaky lately, barely won a map against CLG 22-18 and lost the second one 16-9, also barely won against compLexity 19-15 on nuke, now give that Luminosity are better than both CLG and compLexity, I could see them pull off an upset here. Luminosity recently qualified for Dreamhack Austin, they looked very shaky throughout the qualifier but managed to win in the end, they beat Misfits, compLexity and CLG – all 2-1. It’s also worth mentioning that Luminosity struggled against weaker teams such as Denial, Winterfox and Splyce, so it’s still unlikely that they would just straight up beat NA’s best team here.

So, for now I’d stick to Cloud9 as the odds are not terrible, not exactly accurate either, but they deserve to be heavily favored here, so as long as the odds won’t go crazy I’m gonna bet on Cloud9.

Should be a some what simple game for the C9 boys, although it could get interesting if LG played like they did yesterday and not like they did the other day against NRG. C9 have been getting the job done, but I wouldn’t say they are looking fantastic by any stretch of the imagination. They have not really been tested, and considering they only just about beat CLG and lost the other map, I would not say they are in top form. Apart from autimatic, the rest have kind of dropped off a little bit. Saying that, C9 should take this game, but watch out for LG making the maps close or perhaps taking one map.
